Output of restic version

restic 0.17.3

What should restic do differently? Which functionality do you think we should add?

restic must define an appropriate exit code when it is not able to remove all the snapshots when using forget command along with the --prune flag

What are you trying to do? What problem would this solve?

forget currently exits with an exit code 0 even if some snapshots couldn't be removed.

This has been discussed in #5140

Quoting @MichaelEischer:

forget currently does exit with exit code 0 even if some snapshots couldn't be removed (see restic/cmd/restic/cmd_forget.go
That is definitely a problem when using forget --prune and somewhat questionable when called without that option.
